Posted on August 9, 2018

Five UTV sizes will give enthusiasts more options for performance and durability

GREENVILLE, S.C., Aug. 1, 2018 — UTV enthusiasts have new options for improving their vehicle performance. The BFGoodrich® Mud-Terrain T/A® KM3, the brand’s toughest off-road tire yet, is now available in popular UTV sizes.

The BFGoodrich® Mud-Terrain T/A® KM3 tire launched for street-legal vehicles such as trucks, Jeeps and SUVs in June. The new UTV options bring the KM3’s toughness and traction to the growing UTV segment in North America.

The newly available sizes were engineered for sport and multipurpose UTVs. Built with steel- belted radial construction and adapted from race-proven technology designed for Baja 1000- winning tires, the new UTV offerings balance maximum toughness with minimal weight.

Made to Mud

The BFGoodrich® Mud-Terrain T/A® KM3 features “Mud-Phobic” bars on the tire’s shoulders that are designed to release compacted mud for enhanced traction in muddy or soft soil conditions. The tire’s Terrain-Attack tread pattern includes massive tread blocks designed to deliver incredible grip from any angle of approach.

Built to Climb

The UTV-specific tread compound in the BFGoodrich® Mud-Terrain T/A® KM3 is designed to deliver enhanced grip on rock and other slick surfaces. The tire’s Linear Flex Zone allows it to envelop objects at reduced inflation for even more grip when climbing. The Traction-Armor Sidewall Sculpture and notched shoulder design also boost traction capabilities in soft soil and mud.

Created to Conquer

The BFGoodrich® Mud-Terrain T/A® KM3 was designed to conquer the toughest off-road challenges with extreme sidewall protection, pinch shock resistance and chip-and-tear resistance on gravel.

The MSRP for the UTV KM3 tires starts at $168 and varies by size. BFGoodrich® Mud-Terrain T/A® KM3 UTV tires are for off-road use and are not DOT-approved for use on public roads.
